The Difference between a 1 up and 2 up Program

The Difference between a 1 up and 2 up Program
1 up and 2 up programs are becoming more visible over the
internet as Home Business Opportunities. There are so many
different ones out there. For the new people wanting a
home business over the internet and understanding what a 1
up or 2up,versus a 0 up means, can be confusing. I know it
left my head spinning in circles until I did some research
on different companies. EDC Gold, Easy Daily Cash, Passport
To Wealth, Road map To Riches, Predator Marketing System,
Prosperity International, Emerald Passport, Advantage
Conferences, Coastal Vacations to name a few are what you
would consider a 1 up or 2 up program. So exactly what does
this mean? That is where you pass up your 1st sale to your
sponsor (in the case of a 1up) or your 1st and 2nd sale to
sponsor (in the case of a 2 up program). A 0 up means that
you do not pass up any sales to your sponsor. In this case
I am going to use Free1up as an example of a 1 up program.

EDC Gold is a direct sales company specializing in sales of
digital products including e-books and software that can
help improve websites. They also have a new program called
the Promo Black Box, which is also an online marketing
training program that includes bi-weekly webinars. Their
compensation plan is an Aussie-2up. This means that you
pass up the first 2 sales to your sponsor. Once you have
made two sales you are now qualified and the third sale you
make is yours. You then break away from your sponsor and
become their competition.

When you join you have to pay your sponsor $997. You also
pay a one time administration fee of $49. You also pay a
monthly fee of $49 which can be eliminated by a onetime
payment of $350. The last three fees are fees you don't
find out about until you begin your payment process..

In review, 1 up or 2up programs can be lucrative, but for
the newbie however this can become discouraging by having
to give away sales and then be in competition with their
sponsor. Also, will there be any help or support once you
break away from your sponsor? Another important thing to
look at is the growth of the company and where they are
headed as well as the viability of the products. Most of
these programs can be high ticket programs and difficult to
market because their products are generic or not very
useful for the new people just starting.

In conclusion, be sure to check out which kind of program
it is and know if you are going to have to pass up sales to
your sponsor or not. And a real important factor would be
to talk to the Affilliate of whatever companies you are
looking into.
